I'm really not sure how many of
you have liked the Saturday Knights' stuff that I've shared over the years,
but if you have and would like to download their new album, Mingle,
for free then you should most definitely jump over to the Light In The Attic
site.
Personally, I think it's a solid effort that's worth buying, so paying
nothing for it is real treat. Don't miss out! Now, allow me to
give you something new from Franz Ferdinand. From what I've seen here
and there it sounds like the song below is in the same boat as the Los
Campesinos' one that I posted yesterday - in that it may not end up being on
the band's upcoming album. Whichever the case, I know that I like it,
so I'm feeling pretty confident about whatever they've created on their
third LP. Enjoy.

Ferdinand - Lucid Dreams:
Just so you know, the static-like noise (it sounds like it
does when your vinyl is covered in dust or something) that
you'll immediately notice was done on purpose. I have
no idea why they did such a thing, but once you begin
shaking your hips and singing loud enough to wake the
neighbors you won't even notice it. This is the Franz
Ferdinand that swept everyone off their feet with that
catchy as hell debut.
As much as I
love LCD Soundsystem's original version of All My Friends,
I think that deep down I actually dig Franz Ferdinand's
cover a little more. Check it out.
